We often see brick steps and walls with mortar joints that are deteriorating.  This can be caused by using salt on the steps to melt the winter ice or it may simply be due to the age of the mortar.  When the problems are not corrected, the entire structure will become weakened and may require total replacement.  If caught early on, the structure can be maintained and made to look new again.  This is a small job we did on a set of brick steps.
